[Public-list] Modified galley and v-berth.

[Roger L. Kingsland]

David,

Great descrioption, even I understood it after only 3 readings (but I also
would love to see pics).  One question; how do you use the space under the
old ice box (new nav table)?  Is it storage or have you an aft facing seat
with leg room under the nav table?
